I think it would be the other way around actually - SUNWxorg-headers
should depend on SUNWxwinc, since the core X11 headers are in SUNWxwinc,
SUNWxorg-headers adds some extension libraries that first came in with
Xorg.

Of course, the SVR4 X packages have these dependencies already, it's just
pkg ignores the SVR4 dependencies, and doesn't autocompute these as being
needed.  (Should it follow #include's in header files for calculating
dependencies as well?)

% grep SUNWx
combined.nvx_wos/93/Solaris_11/Product/SUNWxorg-headers/install/depend
                P SUNWxwinc     X Window System include files

How do I see which packages an IPS package depends on so we can compare
against our SVR4 dependencies and see where explicit ones need to be
added in the distro-import rulesets?   I can't find any mention of pkg
dependencies in pkg(1) other than uninstall -r.
